I gotta pull the trigger on that Cerulean now. Gorgeous band. First I get Spearmint, then Papaya, now this.. I need to stop.
I just ordered the Rose Sakura Hermès band..i feel you

There's one on eBay at the moment:

Can you guys help me to find this one in a sealed box? Please?..

Thank you for your reply but I meant the nylon weave with reflective threadin it.

Haha - sorry! Missed the loop part. But hope it’s beneficial anyway.

It does look a bit white on me... and I find I don’t care for the Nike bands. I don’t like that I can’t get the pin placement the same each time. Too tight, too loose... I feel like Goldilocks when I wear them.
 
i need some major help and i want to consult the people on this thread,

what are the names of these two bands????? its not listed anywhere..yet was in the apple store before the new spring refresh. it isn't hibiscus either because "hibiscus" is the set in the second picture (trust me it isnt Product RED as the lightning would tell)

Please help...

My “Close your rings” arrived today and I am not happy. I hoped the black of the band was pure black but it is the same as the regular black loop with the rainbow colors underneath

I am not overly happy either. It’s fine, but less exciting than I was expecting.

I really dont think it is hibiscus. I own hibiscus and it's not that pink...it leans more red.

Actually i like the last yr close the ring better because its really a plain black woven that u cant see in normal woven band..

Unlike the 2019 edition its same as black multicolor loop they only change the connector to neon colors
 
I got a good enough price that reselling shouldn’t be too bad. Not exactly a deal or anything. Debating that now.
I would hold off and let the masses sell theirs first. The market is flooded with these things, so you might get a better price later on when they’ve thinned our. Besides, I didn’t love last year’s band either, but it grew on me. Maybe this year’s will too.
[doublepost=1554784640][/doublepost]I wonder what next year’s incentive will be? So far Apple has chosen bands that don’t require a lot of change to customize it to a “Close Your Rings” edition, a la the woven nylon which was the same black one but with the colored band holder, and then this year’s sport loop which is the same black one but with different colored lugs and band-end. Sport bands don’t have differing parts and have always been just one color, leather and metal bands are too expensive and not sport-themed. Maybe they’ll try something different like in 2017 when it was the magnet pins and t-shirt

I have been on the search for the Apple White Leather Classic Buckle in 42mm. I believe this was the 3rd generation. Has anyone come across this for sale or possibly have one for sale?

Edit: Found 1

I was actually pleasantly surprised it was the multicolor weave! I don’t have the plain black sport loop. I really love this band; it’s got kind of a 90’s vibe to it.
 
Hey there,
I am kind of lost. I want to get a matching band for my Seahawks Color Rush Jersey. Until now I wasnt able to find the right shade, since Apple, only they know why, has only chunked out 2 green bands since 2015. Does anybody on here has the original green band from the Gen0 2015 and could make an educated guess if it the Hawks color?
I‘m guessing from the pictures that the new mint tone just doesnt cut it sadly.

Thanks in advance

He was correct, the first pic is hibiscus and the second is red. I've been hunting up and down for hibiscus lately so I'm far too familiar with that sport band's color haha
